Oscar's setup (http://www.iit.upco.es/~oscar/download/Presentation.tgz),
which includes a lyx layout for ppower4 slides and a script to generate
the ppower4 pdf file works well. ANybody searching for a presentation
approach should consider using it. It is necessary to install the
foiltex package, some style files for ppower4, and ppower4 itself, but
it should only take a little
while.(http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/support/ppower4/readme.html)
I like the ppower4 output pretty much, but I've run into a problem in
lyx in outputting html from the same document. I installed latex2html
and I've confirmed it works with an ordinary lyx document. however, when
I try to export to html from a presentation (Oscar's presentation.lyx),
I get errors. I think the problem may be in latex2html itself, but I'm
checking here first because the lyx user group has the most helpful
people around :). I have installed the foilhtml latex package as well.
But probably missed something else obvious?
Here are the errors I see in the console when I try to do the html
export in lyx
